Chapter 170 Once broken, it can bend.
Upon hearing this, the figure that had been hiding in the shadows finally appeared. The dim moonlight shone on the ground, and it was revealed that the person looked almost exactly like Mu Jianjian!
It's disturbing.
"Hairpins at dawn and dusk, intertwined branches—"
As Mu Jianjian's figure quickly pressed against the shadow, a sharp branch, as sharp as a knife, sprouted from the base of the flower hairpin in her hand and attacked, but inexplicably pierced through it!
And the true energy that followed also passed through!
Isn't it a physical entity?
Just as this thought popped into Mu Jianjian's mind, she heard a low laugh coming from afar. At the same time, the other party actually took out a hairpin and attacked her with branches and leaves. After she dodged, the hairpin smashed a large crater in the ground!
The attack... was actually physical!
Mu Jianjian immediately shifted her focus, remembering the laughter she had just heard. She gradually spread her divine sense outwards, trying to find that person.
One of the "Five Oddities," the Mirror-Folding Woman, is actually a... male voice outside?
Mu Jianjian recalled how unfamiliar her opponent was with the secret technique during their first attack and fight, and finally came to a conclusion.
The woman who folds the mirror is probably not the real person who was killed; the one who truly controls her is hiding in the shadows!
Among the "Five Eccentrics," who else possesses the secret art of controlling objects?
Jiangxing Old Monster.
The image of Qu Yang bursting out of Qiu Bin's body in the secret realm made her want to vomit.
"Old monster Jiang Xing, stop hiding, come out." Mu Jianjian's clear and cold voice was exceptionally distinct in the night. After dodging the shadow's attack, she quickly locked onto the man's location and flashed over to meet his eyes.
Hollow, excited, bloodthirsty.
But after Mu Jianjian swung her palm, the man dodged, and his entire body was finally revealed in the moonlight.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that the identity behind the eldest daughter of the Xuan Shuang Sect is actually the master of Jing Xu Garden, hehe," Jiang Xing, the old monster, hunched his back like a camel carrying a backpack in the desert, his figure was unusually sharp, "If it weren't for the shadow of the Zhe Jing Nu following me, I really wouldn't have found out."
Seeing that the shadow had stopped, Mu Jianjian didn't want to waste words with this person, and her attack continued.
"Useless, hehe. How can you escape from our combined attack?" Old Monster Jiang Xing looked at his back with his hand, a smile spreading across his wrinkled face.
It took him quite a while to kill the Mirror-Folding Woman and take her place, but how could this Foundation Establishment doll in front of him possibly defeat him?
"But don't worry, after you die, the other 'Five Monsters' will come to keep you company one by one, hehe." Jiang Xing, the old monster, was smug as he saw that the other party was getting weaker and weaker in front of the Mirror Woman in disguise. "The Mirror Woman's secret technique can use all the secret techniques you have used. Don't waste your energy. You might as well surrender and offer some conditions."
Miss Xuan Shuang!
Once he has the Xuan Shuang Sect's young lady under control, he can do a lot of things!
"Really? I advise you not to press down on her, I'm in a hurry." Mu Jianjian raised a hand as she watched the shadow's attack.
Will she absorb the true energy of heaven and earth to revert back to the secret techniques she used?
So what do you think of this secret technique?
"The Underworld".
This requires more than just internal energy.
Seeing a large amount of water suddenly appear out of thin air, Jiang Xing narrowed his eyes. So what if he had a secret technique that affected his cultivation level?
The brilliance of the Mirror-Folding Woman's secret technique lies in the fact that the shadows that emerge from the darkness are completely lifeless.
Just as he was feeling triumphant, he saw waves of water carrying countless screaming souls rushing towards him!
Was he the one who attacked?
Jiang Xing Laoguai originally thought that the surging waves would be clumsy and heavy, but he did not expect them to be so fast and close to his body!
"Actually, the 'Five Eccentrics' of Yingzhou are nothing special. You, on the other hand, rely on secret techniques to act arrogantly and domineeringly, but you have no real skills. Sooner or later, you will be washed ashore by the next generation." Mu Jianjian saw that the other party was being swept up higher and higher by the Yellow Spring Water, and his expression was resentful. She knew that she had achieved her goal of provoking him.
"Isn't it because your true energy is gradually depleted that you have other ideas, such as occupying other people's bodies to nourish yourself?"
Previously, Linghu Zhuxu's attempt to control her using his divine sense had failed, so the method of imprinting her with spiritual power seemed even more ineffective in comparison.
"You're talking nonsense! Cultivators will die sooner or later, but as long as I turn you into works of art, you will live on forever! I'm creating an opportunity for you to live forever!" Jiang Xing, the old monster, was becoming increasingly weak as he was enveloped by the Yellow Spring Water, but he still didn't forget to loudly proclaim his thoughts.
"Your line of thinking is completely flawed. Aren't you going to die?" Mu Jianjian's bluff was just a guess, but she didn't expect it to actually work.
With the situation so chaotic among the various factions in the Demon Palace, it's simply a pipe dream for Old Monster Jiang Xing to still be trying to control the "Five Monsters" one by one!
"Miss Mu, you are too naive." Old Monster Jiang Xing said these words as he was submerged in the Yellow Springs, his tone even carrying an absurd quality.
"Ah?" Before Mu Jianjian could ponder her confusion, she felt a thick stream of blood gushing from her throat, and her feet were bound by invisible iron chains and pulled downwards.
"Snap—"
She heard the sound of her leg bones breaking.
"Finally solved." In another corner of the palace, the old woman's figure appeared. Leaning on her cane, she walked shakily to the side of the lifeless, blood-soaked girl. She wanted to bend down to "inspect" her work, but found that she couldn't even bend down with a frown. "I'm getting old, my back can't move..."
"Once it's broken, it can bend down."
Under the old woman's shocked gaze, the seemingly lifeless girl raised her hand and twisted her neck. Even though her legs were stained with blood, her smile remained bright.
Are we playing a game of scheming and espionage with her?
——
The residence of the Supreme Palace of the Demon Palace.
As Gong Yuanjin was meditating with his legs crossed indoors, he suddenly heard a slight noise coming from the room. He opened his eyes alertly, looked out the window, and a thin, long sword appeared in his hand.
He narrowed his eyes, his cold and stern face remaining expressionless, but before he could even leave the house to investigate, a blood-stained girl appeared outside the window.
"No, no, don't attack! We're all on the same side!" The girl dodged the sword energy that Gong Yuanjin was swinging, shouted, and then quickly waved her hands.
"Miss Mu?" Gong Yuanjin finally saw the girl's face clearly. Seeing that she had no hostility, he put the long sword in his hand into his spatial bag. "Excuse me."
He glanced at the girl's bloodstained right arm and mismatched legs, pondered for a moment, and then lowered his eyes.
"Forget the formalities, I'll get straight to the point," Mu Jianjian said, dragging a stool over to sit next to Gong Yuanjin. "Do you know how to break the curse?"
